Tomorrow will mark the beginning of my so-called "recess" week. More like torture week, actually. I'll be stuck in the lab from 9am to 5pm every day. And meetings after that every other day. So, what recess week? This sounds worse than usual school days. I have to wake up before the sun rises every single day! Bah. I should stop complaining about having to wake up early. I mean, I asked for this, didn't I? But I don't understand why the school has to do this to us poor students. I mean, isn't life hard enough coping with 4 super tough and time consuming modules? Why dump this fifth module on us during this semester? The students in other engineering courses get to to their project module after their exams, during the holidays. Okay, I'll get to enjoy my holidays more. But seriously! What are they trying to achieve by spreading us so thin on one semester?! Sadistic bunch of people.
I haven't been feeling too good for the past few days. It started with a splitting headache and nausea on Friday, so I slept most of the day away. Yesterday it was an upset tummy. Didn't let it get in the way of choir though. Po Chai Pills did the trick!
I sang for 12 hours yesterday. My my. What a feat. Practice for Rite of Election started at 10.30am. We sang for the really long mass at 2pm and had to start mass practice immediately after. By the time night practice ended, it was already 10plus at night. Woah.
I thought we'd be starting to practise for Easter Vigil today. But no, practices start next Sunday. Sigh. So I'll be spending the whole day at home today. Makes me feel like a vampire. No, actually it doesn't. I have no idea why I suddenly thought of vampires. Anyway, vampires don't stay at home all day. They go out to feed at night. Okay now, I really have no idea why I'm suddenly talking about vampires.
I should start getting some work done. I've got a never ending pile to work to do. I wish this would stop already.
Shh, it's..here..

Happy Chinese New Year, everyone!
It's late and I should be asleep. What the hell am I doing blogging at this hour?
Well, the last two days were a whole lot of fun. I sure enjoyed the much needed break. Spent the two days at Grandma's place as well as visiting other relatives. Lotsa goodies, ang paos to receive... It's good! I got to spend time with my cousins. Something I always enjoy, considering how rare it is that all 5 of us meet up. 2 days together with the Xbox, my laptop and a deck of cards. How nice.
But it's weird. There are relatives whom I see only once a year. They come visit and, well, what am I supposed to say to them? I barely know them. I'm not unfriendly or anti-social but I find it really awkward to try have a conversation with someone you're supposed to know, but don't. Man, these people must think I'm really boring. Oh well. I do only see them once a year anyway.
Okay then. I guess I really should go to bed. I've got to meet Sarah tomorrow for some much needed retail therapy. I hope the post CNY sales have begun!
Goodnight!

Yay! Friday! Weekends are finally here... Boy was this week tiring. I don't like school. It leaves me with no time and energy left to do anything else. Bah. I need to shop!
Fundraising this weekend! I sure hope all goes well. This has been such a nagging worry at the back of my head for the past week or so. I just don't wanna screw anything up.
Busy busy busy. Argh.
Things I'm looking forward to:
~Chinese New Year - 18th to 29th Feb
~Rite of Election - 24th Feb
~The Phantom of the Opera - 1st April
~Easter Vigil - 7th April
~Holidays! - 12 May
~My 21st birthday! - 2 June
And I'm still looking for someone to go watch Rachael Yamagata with.

Hey.
I'm still alive. I haven't been updating because I've been so damn busy. School's a killer. Argh.
I hate school. 6 modules and 4 projects really sucks.
And there's FOC too. Fundraising next weekend.
Blah blah. Now you see why I'm too busy to update.
But besides school I don't really have much complaints. I guess I really do prefer staying at home. Travelling for 3 hours a day is a waste of time but I still end up feeling better. And I still get to spend time with my dear friends despite having a huge pile of work to do.
Studying at Icekimo with Nicole was nice. Definitely a more fruitful way of spending my weekends compared to the times I used to just slack at home and do absolutely nothing. My excuse? I only spend the weekends at home so I better enjoy it! Haha. No such excuse anymore. It's time Ashley starts spending her weekends doing useful stuff.
Nicole, Crystal, Gabriel, Adam and I were playing floorball with crushed up paper and brooms. Hillarious! Photos are here!
